Believe it or not it has taken 11 weeks for things to calm down and be more the way they are supposed to including my inner thighs and flanks, my arms I love them my sleeves are no longer tight when I put shirts on.
If you look closely from my back you can’t see the incision that happened underneath it is completely hidden.

Wow-I May be seeing her next winter. Your arms are amazing. Do you feel like all the icky skin is smoothed out now when you see the arms from the front. That's the part of mine I want to correct, too. How was the pain? The armpit area looked really sore.

The pain level was minimal. I'm retired but I would guess a couple of weeks. The arm compression feels comfortable but I iced it the first couple of weeks. The only cut was really underneath my arms and the rest was liposuctioned. I am so thankful I did it.

I am shocked at how effective this was, your arms look amazing!!! This was just a mini armpit tuck and did she also do LIPO?

Love this. I also got a mini arm lift 2 days ago. The arm Spanx are probably the most uncomfortable part of the process. How long did your PS say you had to wear yours? How long did your PS say you had to wait before raising your arms over your head? I was told two months and that seems like a really long time.

She never really said. I wore the garment for the first three weeks. Keeping scar guard on he whole time. M completely healed but for he scar to fade. I've been doing arm weight for three weeks now. Good luck!

A little sore, and I have to take diazepam before I go to sleep sleeping on my back. Very very bruised at this point and swollen
